Just the same today 50 years on, only the vehicles have changed, the road is a nightmare most of the day.

Hi Oily the pictures of Isaac Barrie are when it was nationalized as the trailer is Pickfords 32 wheel solid tired bogies rated for 120 tons and they were in service until the late 70s and you had to keep your speed under 20 mph other wise they would start snaking and the solid tyre was prone to sinking into the road surface in hot weather which I have experienced a couple of times.
